Read the handbook on using boot disks. You will want to install over the network if you don't have a CD-ROM. A FreeBSD install could easily run through hundreds of floppies depending on what you want to install. If you only need the bare essentials, you don't have to install FreeBSD at all, you can run it directly from the floppy itself. Check out PicoBSD in the releases section of the source tree. = -- = \ |_ _|__ __|_ \ __| Jason Andresen jandrese@mitre.org |\/ | | | / _| Network and Distributed Systems Engineer _| _|___| _| _|_\___| Office: 703-883-7755 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
